With band conditions being poor so often lately, I've been using my KX1 for receive-only on LF using a newly-built converter kit. Performance has been better than expected given the time of year and the high amount of QRN in this freq range. For $14 I've added a new receive band to any of my 30m QRP rigs and it's kinda fun to tinker and explore what's down in that range. I was unaware of the fact that several stateside stations are operating at 500 kHz.
